T.J. Maxx.

The overstock of kitchen stores. You never know what it will have on the shelves as the store gets new discounted stock every week. Still, it's a good place to find ordinary-to-gourmet name brands like Kitchen Aid, Cuisinart, and even Kuhn Rikon items at half price, from bakeware and cast iron skillets to bamboo cutting boards and mushroom slicers. You may even spot a Viking Cookware saucepan if you're lucky.
